One More Notable Signing?

Arguably, we have met the needs at the following positions:

Cornerback:  Cockrell, Bradberry, Munnerlyn, Elder, Seymour.   Pretty solid and young.

Wide Receiver: Funchess, T. Smith, Wright, Samuel, Byrd.  No true #1, but this lineup requires the D to cover deep (Smith, jersey #11 by the way) and underneath (Wright, jersey #13) now.  Funchess, TE, and CMC will  love this.  REMEMBER: There is probably 1 true #1 WR in  the draft....

That allows us to focus on the following positions in the draft:

  • LG
  • S
  • TE
  • RB

I think we will draft these positions on day 1 and 2.

Later in the draft:

C

OT

I think Marty will use 2 of the last 4 picks trading up.

I find it interesting that last year, almost everyone on this board was screaming to cut Anderson and let Gilbert be the back up. And now Anderson is gone and Gilbert is the #2 and it is a great need. What changed?

No clue. At this point I'd rather roll with Gilbert than have DA back. DA has looked atrocious when he's had to see the field the past two seasons.

Do we have any cap left assuming the 6-7 mill for the rookies?

I would assume it's extremely tight, that could be an issue without making some cuts. Which there are some no brainer cuts on our roster right now, there's just not enough room in the depth chart to suit them up on a consistent basis.

Russell Shepard still being on our roster is absolutely baffling to me.

or amini silatolu or wr charles johnson or jarius byrd. due to the comp pick formula, we will wait until another team signs one of our own ufa 1st

That's a good point. Do we only need to have one signed? What if we sign them, does that count?

I didn't think the NFL made that formula public, but I suppose most people have figured out it's patterns.

I definitely think we add a veteran TE before the draft.

I think Lewis on a two-year deal would be awesome. Then draft a TE in the 3rd to replace Simonsen. At least this would buy us some time to sort out the TE position going forward in a world with Olsen

Give me Ayers to stabilize our edges and Navarro Bowman as our Sam to truly boost our front seven and then let’s have an all out Offensive Draft that includes a Center and Anthony Miller

Yea because what this team can afford to do is put one of their expensive linebackers on the bench.
